Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0095254A2] A composite cable wherein an optical fiber (1) and plurality of conductors (2) are arranged integrally and bound together by means of an insulating material (3). The ends of the plurality of conductors (2) are folded over the end of the insulating material (3) and crimped by means of a sleeve (5) made of conductive metal to one end of the composite cable (A). The ends of the plurality of conductors (2 min ) are also folded over the end of the insulating mater (3) and crimped by means of a female socket (6) made of conductive metal to the other end of the composite cable (A min ). The opposing ends of two composite cables (A, A min ) can be brought in close contact with each other so that the two optical fibers (1, 1 min ) can be connected to each other and the sleeve (5) is fitted into the female socket (6) to connect the conductors (2). Therefore, the wiring is simplified and requires very little space. These composite cables may be applied to optical communication equipment.
